The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the lifestyle in global education systems in favor of more reliance on e-learning, which is believed to be a change that will continue. Exams are no exception as they are also moving towards online remote exams where examinees can take their exams at their remote locations. However, it is worth noting that it is still difficult to ensure that the full discipline of the exam session is administered remotely, as is the case for traditional exams that are conducted in the classroom and in the presence of proctors. However, there are many attempts at the commercial and research levels to overcome many of the challenges facing this problem from different angles. Therefore, this survey article attempts to review some of those attempts at both the solutions and technology levels. The article also made some comparisons and evaluations of the techniques and algorithms reviewed as an attempt to assess their weaknesses and strengths in counteracting persistent attempts to circumvent the discipline of the exam system. Hence, this article aims to pave the way for system designers who wish to implement remote exam session management systems by reviewing both commercially available and under-researched technologies. It also aims to introduce researchers to the findings of scientific research so far, while shedding light on open gaps and problems that have not yet been researched.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
